Gibson 'Chet Atkins' SST Guitar
Posted: Fri Jun 07, 2013 3:09 pm
Hi,
I have been having a problem with my SST Chet Atkins guitar. Each time I play I get overtones especially on the first three strings (the note or a facsimile of it keeps ringing on even after I have taken my my fingers away and I have to put the heel of my hand on the strings. I do know the principle of blocking; but this is beyond that.
Going on an earlier Chetboarders post I had the pickup replaced with a Fishman Matrix and as advised the resister was changed from 10 to 20meg to match the input from the pickup. The problem is not solved and it's driving me batty.
Can anyone advise?
